Question: ( a ) The density as a function of distance for the rod is given by = B + C x , where B and

(a) The density as a function of distance for the rod is given by =B+Cx, where B and C are constants. What are the values of in (:gcm3} and in (:gcm4}?
B=,gcm3
C=,gcm4
(b) Finding the total mass of the rod requires integrating the density function over the entire length of the rod. The integral is written as follows.
m=allmaterialdv=allxAdx=015.0cm(B+Cx)(8.00cm2)dx
What is the total mass of the rod (in kg)?
kg
